Trade Inquiries Revealed

It is not often you read about a team owner discussing some of the trade inquiries they receive.  I wonder how the teams mentioned below feel about it?

from David Shoalts of the Globe and Mail,

(Oren) Koules has a ready response to any questions about Smith, the former Dallas backup who was 3-10 after arriving in Tampa last February.

“There was an erroneous report on the first day of free agency that we wanted to trade Mike Smith,” Koules said. “The first two calls we got were from [Stars GM] Les Jackson and [former Stars GM] Doug Armstrong (now VP of Player Personnel for the Blues). Then, we got one from [Vancouver Canucks GM] Mike Gillis, who used to be his agent.

“What’s that tell you about Smith?”
